Vol. 2 No. 1
C. C. C. 2710, Two Harbors, Minn.
March 15, 1939
38 MEN RETURN
TO CIVILIAN LIFE
END OF MARCH
The end of March marks the end
of another enrollment period and
many a love-lorn lad will find himself
going back among parents and friends
(where all those perfumed, S. W. A. K.
letters come from).
Then what! That's a question that
-.-be;-:,- 'annOst"CVefy 6ne"0_t" us. YerjT
few are assured of steady employment
when they are discharged. How they
have spent their time while here,
whether studying to improve themselves or merely idling away time,
will mean a great deal in their efforts
to find employment.
Twenty of the men listed below
have been enrolled the two year limit
and must now accept discharges. The
remainder of the names compose the
list of those who thus far have signified their desire to leave, having
finished one or more six-month enrollment periods.
Some of the men have been out
standing in many ways and have fixed
themselves indelible in our memories.
Some, it seems, have been here so long
that their absence will be like a
missing front tooth. All have made
some special friends and comrades
who join us in wishing them all the
very best of good fortune.
Men who must leave:
Anderson, Elmer M.
Brusseau, Ernest E.
Cartwright, Gordon F.
Cooper, Jack
Foster, Lymon F.
Gimberlin, Richard G.
Giwoyna, Joseph A.
Grahek, Albert J.
Huhta, Toiva E.
Heikkila, Eino W.
Keuten, Alfred C.
Larson, Leonard H.

Dinner and Program
Our Skipper, Capt. J. W. Leighton.
Inf. Res., returned to duty Saturday,
March 4, after a month leave during
which he visited several states enroute
to Florida. On the return trip he
skirted the eastern coast, stopped at
Washington, D. C, and visited many
points of great interest. Among other
things he saw Congress in action and
visited the Vice President's office.
Thereafter he came across country
back to this cold North country.
The trip apparently did him no
harm as he came back looking fine,
rested, and with a healthy glow of
sun tan.
Capt. Leighton Back SUPERIOR SUB-DISTRICT CAMPS
From Leave LOQK FORWARD TO ONE DAY
OF INTER-CAMP ACTIVITIES HERE
The camps in the Sub-District are
eagerly looking forward to a day of
of intercamp activity to be held at
Company 2710 on March 18, 1939 for
for which plans are rapidly being
completed.
All the details have not been com-
pleted at thiswritinghiit. all the co
panies have indicated a desire for this
type of activity and plans are going
ahead rapidly to include basketball,
boxing, ping pong, pool, spelling bee,
first aid demonstration and a "Professor Quiz."
The basketball tournament will be
held at the Two Harbors High School.
The boxing, ping pong and pool will
be held in the recreation hall of this
company. The first aid demonstration, spelling bee, and "Professor
Quiz" will be held in our new Educational building.
It is expected that a team trophy
will be given for basketball and individual trophies to the winners in all
other events.
The winner and runner up in the
Basketball tournament will be sent to
the district basketball tournament
which will likely be held March 25th.
The officials for all events will be
selected from the supervisory personnel of the various camps.
It may be necessary for some of
the more distant contestants to remain here over night. In that event
the barracks formerly occupied as an
educational building will be used for
these men.
Let's not forget that all contestants
are our guests and treat them with
the respect they deserve.
The formal dedication of the new
Educational Building will be Friday.
March 17th. The program includes a
special dinner at 6:00 in the Mess
Hall. At 7:00in the New Educational
Building there will be presentation of
Certificates to enrollees and short
talks by Mr. Brickley, Mayor of Two
Harbors; Mr. Campton, Supt. of
Schools; District, Sub-District and

this a few boxing matches, wrestling
and tumbling will be held in the
recreation hall.

will provide music.

expected from Two Harbors and
